Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Lois & Clark Fanfic FDK- Learning to Love Part 38

Carol,
I was hoping you would post again tonight and I am thrilled that you did before I went to bed.

I absolutely love this part. My favorite so far! It is wonderful to see Lois and Clark this relaxed with each other, the easy banter that we know from the show is so evident and so much fun!

I am glad that enjoyed Christmas with the Whites and Lucy and Jimmy. They have really formed a family. That reminds me of me. I tend to end up having more "families" where ever I go. It is great having people around you that care about you and mean a lot to you.

I love that they have come up with a code to let Clark know when Lois is ready. That was brilliant! And I can see Lois slowly getting eager to get to that point.

As for the doing nothing day at the chateau... happy sigh! It sounds wonderful.

Happy Fourth of July to all the American FoLCs, have a great day. I am going to visit my family for the weekend so I am looking forward to reading the next part when I get back on Monday.

Carol, this was just so sweet, not over the top sweet but just the right amount of tenderness and the beginning of passion.

Nice to see them communicate well enough to plan for their first night together even if it is a while from now.

Have a great fourth and post if you have time.

Favorite line: You're mean.

Favorite concept: The article Clark sketched out regarding movie day in bed. I would write it this way, "The room service was exquisite. The maid service while we were in the jacuzzi was discrete."

James and I have our own term for going through that many scenarios for what might happen: nthing--(verb) to take a metaphor or situation to the nth degree; to go too far with mental pictures

I absolutely loved it, too. Lois is indeed learning to love and trust Clark more and more, and as a result, they can joke together and discuss details of their coming intimacy. What a difference compared with those nights when Lois has almost panicked because she has feared that Clark might force her into something she can't bear or accept.

Now, they are talking, taking the fear out of it. Lois got to lay down some rules, or rather, they agreed on what signals she should give him when she was ready. I love it. The whole thing is so full of respect and acceptance. And I loved that Clark told Lois that their first times together might not be so good, particularly not the very first time, but that they would learn together.

Another great part, Carol. And for Lois to actually talk about finding a signal to tell Clark she's ready I was sort of surprised by her giving him a year tops as her hopes of being ready. On one hand it makes sense from an anniversary point of view, on the other, unless she is already playing with the thought, I think she might start to freeze up once a few months are over. A year can seem so long on the first day, but once the first three or four months are over
